We keep hearing, “Make America Great Again,” but is that happening?
I am one of many who are fearful of what is going on because we are regularly losing jobs and freedoms that are important to us. Have you noticed? Firing of thousands of federal workers, many of whom are our vets; closing Department of Education; banning teaching of DEI (diversity, equity and inclusion); attacking lawyer and judges; proposed taking over Gaza; Putting thousands of USAID staff on leave; Imposing tariffs on other countries; imposing sanctions on the staff at the International Criminal Court (ICC); signed a resolution to withdraw from several United Nations institutions, including the UN Human Rights Council; banned transgender competitors from women’s sports; gave members of DOGE access to private and sensitive information in the Treasury Department; blocked the security clearance of former President, Joe Biden and is closing or trying to close down many other programs that benefit most Americans, such as Social Security. He is using our tax dollars to take things away and sending innocent people to a foreign prison because of the color of their skin.
To be balanced with information, we all must watch or read a variety of news sources such as BBC; NPR; PBS News Hour; and CNN. It is well known that Fox News is regularly using Russian propaganda. During the first 100 days, Rachel Maddow on MSNBC is reporting on the daily actions of the Trump administration using other media and resources to demonstrate her reporting.
